That afternoon, while the greedy peddler was on his rounds, he came to the door of that very house, crying, "Beads for sale! Beads for sale!"
When the young girl heard his cry, she begged, "Please buy me a trinket, Grandmother."
My question, what exactly the trader crying? yes i understand the second more connection and fluid than the first who have odd (this odd make wonder what the stories want to told me).
